It sounds like you're confusing this a little.

You have 2 kwallets, one for kde4 apps (like kmail), one for kf5 apps.

kmail is a kde4 application, so to query the kde4 kwallet, use 
kwalletmanager

kwalletmanager5 is for the kf5 kwallet.

The migration thing is trying to help you migrate your kde4 kwallet content 
to the kf5 kwallet (which is IMO rarely helpful, so is generally silly).  
I'd argued we should disable that by default (but I'm in the minority).
